I am RPL with ANA+ and I am on HCQS past 2 months. Will Aurveda can help me? - #723

With a diagnosis of RPL (recurrent pregnancy loss) and a positive ANA (antinuclear antibodies) test, your body may be experiencing autoimmune responses that can affect fertility and pregnancy. Ayurveda, with its holistic approach, can support your journey by focusing on balancing the doshas (particularly Vata and Pitta), boosting immunity, and nourishing the reproductive system to help prepare your body for a healthy pregnancy. Since you’re currently on HCQS and undergoing IVF, an Ayurvedic approach can work as a complementary support, enhancing overall wellbeing and preparing the body for embryo transfer. In Ayurveda, herbs such as Ashwagandha and Shatavari are often used to support reproductive health and reduce stress, which is particularly beneficial when preparing for pregnancy. Ashwagandha helps in strengthening the immune system and managing stress, while Shatavari is known for its nourishing effect on the female reproductive system, helping to balance hormones and prepare the body for pregnancy. To create a calming and nurturing environment within the body, regular Abhyanga (oil massage) with warm sesame or almond oil is recommended to soothe Vata dosha and encourage circulation, especially around the abdomen and lower back areas. Practicing gentle yoga and Pranayama (breathing exercises) can further help balance the mind, relieve stress, and support blood flow to the reproductive organs, all of which are beneficial in promoting a healthy implantation. Additionally, focus on a warm, easily digestible, and nutrient-rich diet that includes cooked vegetables, whole grains, and ghee, while avoiding excessively cold, spicy, or processed foods that can aggravate Vata and Pitta. Ayurvedic detoxification practices, like Panchakarma, can also be beneficial for fertility but should be done only under the guidance of a qualified Ayurvedic practitioner, especially in preparation for IVF. With these Ayurvedic principles as complementary support, you can foster a balanced, nurturing environment in your body. Working closely with both your IVF specialist and an experienced Ayurvedic doctor will help you get the best support as you prepare for embryo transfer.
